As with all luxury pieces, knowing what to look for is everything. Here's your guide to authenticating Fred Paris jewelry.
The Gemstone Setting Fred Paris favored bold cabochon stones — golden topaz, garnet, and other rich colored gems set in a bezel setting with clean, precise gold edges. The stone should sit perfectly level with no gaps between stone and setting.
The Weight Authentic Fred Paris pieces have a satisfying, substantial weight. 18K gold combined with steel cable is dense — if a piece feels light or hollow, that's a red flag.
The Craftsmanship Every transition between gold and cable should be seamless. The decorative gold elements — scrolls, bezels, end caps — should be precisely finished with no rough edges or casting flaws.
